Our take
Zero Hash provides embedded crypto solutions, including for risk and settlement, post-trade management, compliance, liquidity, and asset management. This breadth of scope, in combination with Zero Hash’s API-driven business model, means its clients can access a competitively broad range of crypto products; and get them up and running competitively fast.
Zero Hash's gamble is that an increasing number of companies will be looking to offer crypto products to their customers, and it's being firmly vindicated. NFT minting, trading, and ownership has skyrocketed over recent years, and crypto trading has broken into the mainstream.
Despite the boom in crypto trading, November 2022's FTX crash has given way to a more cautious market. Internal controls, governance, and closer attention from regulatory bodies have somewhat slowed the pace of trading. As a global exchange though, Zero Hash is carving out a role for itself as a watchdog and overseer.
As a global exchange though, Zero Hash is carving out a role for itself as a watchdog and overseer. Crypto firms such as Juno are turning to Zero Hash to improve the user experience. With some other major players like MoneyLion, DraftKings, and MoonPay under its belt, Zero Hash has weathered the tumult.
